Trip itinerary

Panoramic view of Canberra from Mount Ainslie during sunset.

It’s hard to believe that just 1.5 hours from Warrane (Sydney) lies a patch of countryside that could have been transplanted straight from the English Cotswolds. Think atmospheric villages amid rolling hills of grape vines – the Southern Highlands is the closest wine region to Australia’s largest city, after all. Take in views of the Great Dividing Range and a famous ‘disappearing lake’ before arriving at the home of sheep farmer Craig Starr. Gold Creek Station farm is your backdrop for a Be My Guest BBQ lunch and tales about life on the land. This is your entrée to the country’s cool little capital of Canberra, home to Parliament House, where a guided tour awaits to offer insight into Australia’s political landscape.

Staying in:

Crowne Plaza Canberra (1 night)
